ABOUT GO STEM: The Greater Oregon STEM (GO STEM) Hub provides STEM resources, materials, and support for K-12 educators and students, as well as for community members and partners across the seven county region that we serve (Harney, Grant, Wallowa, Baker, Union, Morrow, and Umatilla communities), spanning 42 school districts and over 38,000 square miles.
ABOUT THE MOBILE MAKER LAB: A Mobile Maker Lab is a portable classroom space with hands-on STEAM learning and career-connected learning curriculum and an open-concept of tinkering with STEM-related tools and materials. The Mobile Maker Lab will be outfitted with career-connected and STEM/STEAM learning resources, including tools and materials for hands-on tinkering and building.
ABOUT THE CURRICULUM: This curriculum menu will have options for schools and educators to choose from and will include pre and post learning activities for participating educators to utilize in their own classroom instruction and in preparation for the Mobile Maker Lab visit. We will include renewable energy sources, robotics and coding, hands-on building and crafting, as well as other career-focused projects that can accommodate different grade levels’ learning.
ABOUT THE VISIT REQUEST PROCESS: We want to visit your community! Due to the number of schools we serve, we may not be able to get to you right away. This interest form is to start collecting who is interested in us visiting and what types of learning experiences would be best for our unique Eastern Oregon communities.
